Description: The silver cypress, also known as the boulevard cypress, is a dense, upright, broadly pyramidal, symmetrical small tree that is grown for its handsome foliage: soft, silvery blue-green leaves. This tree is awl-shaped, curving with a fine point without being too prickly. These cypress respond well to training and sculpting, making them an excellent choice for bonsai.
